File a Federal Complaint

If you have specific instances of discrimination against male domestic violence victims by any government-funded DV program anywhere in the U.S., please send all evidence you have to the following federal agencies as a complaint, and state that this violates United States Code, Title 42, Section 3789d(c)(1). Give them as much evidence as you can. They are supposed to investigate it. After several months you may get a letter back saying there is "insufficient evidence" and that they need more information such as dates and times of the discrimination, names of the programs and contact info, names and contact info of witnesses, documents or records, and a detailed chronological narrative. So, re regarding evidence, the more the better.
You can send the complaints by email, mail, or both. Send them to:
Office of Civil Rights
Office of Justice Programs
U.S. Department of Justice
810 7th Street, NW
Washington, DV 20531

NCFM 1992 DECLARATION OF THE FATHER’S FUNDAMENTAL PRE-NATAL RIGHTS

DECLARATION OF THE FATHER’S FUNDAMENTAL
PRE-NATAL RIGHTS

RESOLUTION SUBMITTED BY MEMBER HUGH NATIONS AND ADOPTED BY THE NCFM BOARD OF DIRECTORS, AUGUST 19, 1992

WHEREAS, the function of men in parenting has been confined largely to the second-class role of material provider; and

WHEREAS, healthy relationships and healthy families require that men be equal participants in every facet of parenting, including responsible contraception and conception; and

WHEREAS, in a substantial number of abortions, the prospective fathers are excluded from all phases of the pregnancy termination process, including any prior knowledge of the initial decision to abort and even post-abortion notification; and

WHEREAS, purported “freedom of choice” is neither freedom nor choice as long as one of the two partners-in-conception can unilaterally impose a decision on the other without notification, discussion, consultation, or any other form of reasonable or humane discourse; and

WHEREAS, the question of the participation of the prospective father in any decision to abort is a separate and distinct matter from those positions normally identified as “pro-choice” and “pro-life”; and

WHEREAS, individuals may in good conscience fully embrace either position and still hold to the heartfelt principle that conception and pre-natal participation, as a vital part of a man’s role in parenting, should be respected along with all the other facets of his parenting role; and

WHEREAS, the decision to abort or to carry to term is an intensely private matter, and, to the maximum extent reasonable, the decision to do either should be made solely by the partners-in-conception; and

WHEREAS, ensuring that all options are fully understood and supported by each partner-in-conception before irreversible decisions are implemented requires the complete and healthy involvement of both partners; and

WHEREAS, for the prospective father to participate fully in that process and to fully exercise his pre-natal role as nurturer and protector, notification of conception and establishment of paternity are necessary:

NOW THEREFORE, this organization, in recognition of the foregoing facts, hereby adopts the following:

I. The prospective father has the fundamental right to be informed by his partner-in-conception that conception has resulted from their union.

II. The prospective father has the fundamental right to participate with his partner-in-conception in any decision affecting the future of the fetus he helped create.

III. The prospective father has the fundamental right to consult with his partner-in-conception or the health care provider, and to be apprised of any relevant information concerning the pregnancy or the abortion process.

IV. A putative father has the fundamental right to a determination of paternity, during both pre-natal and post-natal periods, at the earliest practical time, and by the most conclusive methods reasonably available.

V. The prospective father has a fundamental right of custody equal to that of his partner-in-conception and superior to that of any other.

VI. The prospective father has the right to personal guardianship of the fetus when required to protect the well-being of the fetus or to preserve the right to custody.

VII. The prospective father has the fundamental right, with the consent of his partner-in-conception, to be present at delivery.

Over the years millions of people worldwide have visited a National Coalition For Men website. Also over the years the site has changed dramatically, been taken down, moved, and otherwise uprooted. In those processes much information was lost, not recovered, and does not appear on this site.

Stop Abuse for Everyone, one of the most comprehensive and oldest sites dedicated to victims of domestic violence. The site was recently upgraded with the assistance of NCFM. The site includes an interactive map of north America for helping to find shelter services that might or do help abused men.

More great resources for men and those who care about men. Ask your elected officials if they do.
